Family codes and rituals
Freddy Woo writes, "as a child we used to have a 'whoever cuts doesn't choose the slice' rule with cake. It worked brilliantly, but it's left me completely anal about dividing up food - my wife just takes the piss as I ritually compare all the slice sizes."
What codes and rituals does your family have?

Me and my step-brother
managed to wind my dad up so much once that he actually did turn the car round and drive back home.
Of course being teenagers at the time, we just found this highly amusing and spent the whole journey back taking the piss even more. My favourite bit of which was me warning my step-brother "You'd better be careful, if we annoy him too much he might turn round and drive back into town."
